When I looked in the direction I was told, I caught a glimpse of the tail fin. Next, I saw a spout of water and a glimpse of its back. I hope to see it jump someday.

After finishing my errands in Maui, I returned to Honolulu for a day trip and was quite tired. However, there was already a bus waiting outside the baggage claim (by chance!?) so I was able to get on right away and return to my hotel, which was a great help. Unlike international flights, it seems there are fewer people boarding, so I think it's a good idea to use this option instead of waiting for a taxi.
マウイでの用事を終えて日帰りでホノルルへ帰ってきた為、かなり疲れていたのですが、バゲージクレーム外に既に(たまたま!?)バスが待機していたのですぐに乗ってホテルまで帰る事が出来て大変助かりました。国際線と違って乗車する人が少なそうなので、タクシー待ちするくらいならこちらでお願いするのはアリだと思います。

I had to take a flight to Maui at 8:30, so I requested a pickup. However, regardless of whether it was a domestic or international flight, the pickup was set for three hours prior. I was aware of this from the time of the arrangement, but I felt that with domestic flights, there tends to be quite a bit of time needed after arriving and completing security checks, so it was a bit uncertain whether taking a taxi would have been better. Especially since I only speak English, I thought it might be just as easy to use a taxi.
所用があり8:30の飛行機でマウイ島へ行く事になっていた為、こちらにお願いしたのですが、国内線・国際線問わず、3時間前のピックアップになっていました。それは手配の時からわかってはいたのですが、やはり国内線だと着いて保安検査を終えてからもかなりの時間が発生するので、タクシーにした方が良かったか微妙な感じでした。特に英語のみなので、それならタクシーを使っても一緒かな、と思いました。

This is the second time for us but we had family guests who had not been before. Last time we took the tour, our guide was excellent, informative, fun. This time we were not as happy with the guide. The first thing he did was tell us about himself and he played football. That took 10 min. He went extensively into the history of the island but did not touch on some of the things that were current such as the Hawaiian housing we drove through, no gangs. He was very monotone. I know he said he had been doing this for 30 years but we paid over $600. and he was boring and not as informative as he could be

Aloha. We are very humbled and grateful that you chose E Noa Tours to help introduce your friends to Oahu. Thank you for taking the time to post a review. Having said that, however, we are extremely disappointed to hear that the tour guide did not meet your expectations. E Noa Tours is proud of each and every one of its drivers and tour guides. And they, in turn, are proud to talk about their island home. Our guests always return with glowing reviews about their tour guides, who normally are entertaining and informative. It sounds like the tour guide who took care of you that day, needs a pep talk from our management team. Please accept our apologies for your negative experience. We hope that your friends still had fun on the tour and walked away with fabulous photos. Warmest aloha to you.

I have been to Oahu several times, but this was my first visit to the Big Island. Since I wanted to see a show while I was there, I researched online and in books, and it seemed that this luau show was the best option, so I signed up.
I read that if you want a seat closer to the front, it's better to line up early, so I arrived an hour in advance. By that time, there were already about five groups in line. However, it was worth arriving early as I was able to sit in a front row seat!
And finally, about the show…! The entrance scene was grand, coming from the sea! The music was played live throughout, which made it very enjoyable. The hula dance, which I was most looking forward to, was beautiful, but I felt there were too few dancers, as there were several gaps between the songs where no hula was performed, which was disappointing. I understand that it takes time for costume changes and preparations, but I wish there had been more dancers. However, the dance was lovely, and I would have been very satisfied if I could have seen more performances.
I didn't have high expectations for the food, but it was more plentiful and delicious than I anticipated.
Overall, I would have been very satisfied if I could have seen more hula! But aside from that, the show by the seaside at sunset became a wonderful memory. Thank you!
オアフ島は何度か行ったことがありますが、ハワイ島は初めて行きました。せっかく行くならショーを見たいと思いネットや本で調べたところ、こちらのルアウショーが1番良さそうだったので申し込みました。
書き込みに、前の方の席が希望なら早めに並んだ方がいいとあったので1時間前から並びました。その時間ですでに5組ほど並んでる方がいました。が早めに行った甲斐あり前の方の席に座ることが出来ました!
そしていよいよショーはというと…!
登場シーンが海からというスケールが大きかったです!音楽はずっと生演奏で流れていたのでとても楽しめました。そして1番楽しみにしてたフラは躍りはとっても素敵だったのですが、ダンサーの人数が少なかったのか続けてずっとフラが見れるわけではなく曲と曲の間の空き時間が何回もあり、それが残念でした!着替え等の準備で時間がかかるのは仕方ないと思うのでもう少しダンサーの人数がいればなと思いました。でも躍りはとても素敵だったのでもっと曲数見れたら大満足だったなと思います。
お料理はあまり期待してなかったのですが、予想より品数も多く美味しかったです。
総合的にはフラがもっと見れたら大満足でした!でもそれを省けば、海辺で夕暮れ時からのショーはとてもいい想い出になりました。ありがとうございました!

One of the reasons I decided to go to the Big Island was my desire to see the starry sky at Mauna Kea, so I was really looking forward to it. After participating, it was just as wonderful as I had hoped.
After being picked up at the hotel, we headed to the Onizuka Visitor Center in a 12-passenger van. It was enjoyable to hear our guide, Mr. Yamamoto, talk about the plants and animals that inhabit the Big Island, and we even encountered wild sheep and cows.
Upon arriving at the Onizuka Visitor Center, we took a break with a bento box and miso soup. Although it was an early dinner before sunset, the bento was luxurious, like a catered meal, and I was very satisfied.
Since the van was full, it felt cramped after putting on the borrowed warm clothing. However, once we reached the summit, the temperature was lower than I had imagined, and the warm clothing was much appreciated.
The observatory and the sea of clouds illuminated by the sunset at the summit were breathtaking! The sunset disappearing into the sea of clouds was nothing short of magical. After it got dark, I was able to gaze up at the starry sky, and it was incredibly moving. I was blessed with good weather and timing, and the starry sky without the moon was overwhelming. In the distance, I could faintly see the red glow of the Kilauea crater… I was able to feel the grandeur of nature.
It became a truly wonderful memory. Thank you very much!
ハワイ島に行くことにしたきっかけの一つが「マウナケアで星空が見たい!」という思いだったため、とても楽しみにしていました。実際に参加してみて、期待通り素晴らしかったです。
ホテルでピックアップしてもらった後、12人乗りのバンでオニヅカビジターセンターに向かいました。ガイドの山本さんのハワイ島に生息する植物や動物のお話を聞きながら、実際に野生の羊や牛などに遭遇でき楽しかったです。
オニヅカビジターセンターに到着後、お弁当とお味噌汁で休憩。サンセット前ということでかなり早めの夕食でしたが、仕出し弁当のような豪華なお弁当で大満足でした。
バンは満席だったため、借りた防寒着を着て着ぶくれた後の車中は狭く感じました。ただ、山頂に上がってみると想像以上に気温は低く、防寒着はありがたかったです。
山頂で夕日に照らされる天文台や雲海は圧巻!
雲海に消えていく夕日は幻想的の一言に尽きます。
暗くなってからは、満天の星空を見上げることができて、とても感動しました。好天やタイミングに恵まれ、月がない星空の星明りに感無量。
遠くには、キラウェアの火口の赤い光もうっすら…!自然の壮大さを感じることができました。
大変いい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました!

Since it was my first time on the Big Island of Hawaii, I definitely wanted to see the sunset and the starry sky, so I found this tour and signed up immediately. During the drive, the guide shared various stories about the Big Island, and we arrived in no time. At the Onizuka Visitor Center, we enjoyed a bento box and miso soup. It was a bit disappointing that the miso soup was cold, but I was still happy to have it♪
As we headed to the summit, they provided us with warm clothing, including hats and gloves, so we could enjoy the sunset and the starry sky without feeling cold. The moment I got out of the car and saw so many stars that I had never seen before, I was truly moved! We took some photos, but the starry sky was so breathtaking that it couldn't be captured in pictures. I tried to imprint the view in my memory for as long as time allowed. I was so touched that I could have watched it forever!
On the Big Island, we visited various spots like Kilauea Volcano and Hapuna Beach, but the sunset and starry sky at Mauna Kea were the most impressive and became my favorite memory. So, if you go to the Big Island, I highly recommend participating in this tour! It's truly amazing☆
初めてのハワイ島だったので、絶対にサンセットと星空は見たいと思っていたところ、このツアーを見つけて即申込みました。
行きの車の中ではガイドさんがハワイ島の色々な話をしてくれてあっという間に到着しました。オニヅカビジターセンターではお弁当とみそ汁をいただきました。みそ汁が冷めていたのが少し残念でしたが、みそ汁は嬉しかったです♪
山頂に向かい、防寒具も帽子や手袋まで貸していただけたので寒さを感じずにサンセットから星空を観賞できました。車から降りて今まで見たことのないたくさんの星を見た瞬間、本当に感動しました!写真も撮っていただきましたが、写真では伝わらないほどの星空で時間が許す限り星空を目に焼きつけました。時間があればずっと見ていたいくらい本当に感動しました!
ハワイ島ではキラウェア火山やハプナビーチと色々なスポットに行きましたが、マウナケアのサンセットと星空が何よりも感動し、一番の思い出になりました。なので、ハワイ島に行ったらぜひ参加してみてください!本当にオススメです☆

The guidance from the airport was unclear, and I couldn't find the staff. I was at the baggage claim properly, but I ended up being left behind. When I communicated this to a staff member who spoke Japanese, I received a response that suggested it was my fault for not being able to find the pick-up staff.
They did manage to arrange a different bus for me, but it was very unpleasant.
On the way to the airport, I also arrived nearly 20 minutes late compared to the scheduled time, which was quite nerve-wracking.
空港からの案内がわかりづらく、係の人が見つけられなかった。こちらはきちんとバゲッジクレームにいたのに。そのため、置いていかれてしまい、日本語が話せる窓口の人にその旨を伝えた結果、「迎えのスタッフを見つけられなかった貴方達が悪い」というような返答をされた。
なんとか違うバスを手配してはもらったが、非常に不愉快だった。
空港へ向かう際も、予定の時刻よりも20分近く遅れて到着し、肝を冷やした。

Due to regulations, you can only see from a farther distance than expected. However, I was able to see the spouts and tails. It would be nice to have binoculars, but since they are small, if you lean in to look, you might lose sight of them.
I accidentally watched from the lower deck the whole time, but I think I would have seen more if I had gone to the top. Even if you can't see whales, it's a pleasant cruise where you can enjoy the view of Waikiki from the clear sea.
Actually, on the dinner cruise, I happened to see whales, and they were closer there. It's all about luck.
By the way, I opted for the breakfast option, but it might be fine without it. The contents were lettuce, tomato, sausage, scrambled eggs, orange, and pineapple.
規定があるので、思ったより遠くからしか見られません。
でも、潮吹きや尾が見えました。双眼鏡があるといいですが、小さいので、覗きこんでいると、見失ってしまいます。
うっかり下のデッキからずっとそのまま見てしまいましたが、一番上に上がったらもっと見えたと思います。
クジラが見えなくても、晴れた海からワイキキを眺められて気持ちいいクルーズです。
実はディナークルーズでも、偶然クジラが見られて、そちらの方がクジラは近かったです。運次第ですね。
なお、朝食付きにしましたが、なしでもいいかも。
内容は、レタス・トマト・ソーセージ・スクランブルエッグ・オレンジ・パイナップル、以上でした。

Since it's near Honolulu, I thought it would be lucky if we got to see whales, and if not, we could enjoy the cruise, so I made a reservation. There are colorful fish in the harbor where the boat docks, so definitely check them out before boarding! The various sizes of yellow and blue fish really get you excited.
For those without meals included, we were guided to the third floor where we received explanations about the whales and the boat before departure, but everything was in English and honestly, it was content you could take or leave. Later, a file with explanations in Japanese was placed on the stage, which was sufficient. Since there was time, many people were having breakfast with the rice balls and bread they brought. Since it was early in the morning, having a meal here might be enough.
Once we set sail, we had free time, so I quickly went up to the observation floor on the fourth deck. About 30 minutes after departure, when we could see Ala Moana, dolphins started swimming alongside the boat!!! Everyone was super excited to see about 20 dolphins! They swam alongside the boat, jumped a little away, and then came back... just this alone felt worth the price, and I was already very satisfied.
After about 45 minutes, we arrived off Diamond Head and stopped. An announcement was made to look for whales. However, during the announcement, we already saw a spout, and when we focused our eyes, we spotted a large tail! It was a bit far, but we could see it perfectly! After that, we spent about an hour and a half moving and stopping while searching for whales, and we were able to see them more than 15 times, which was amazing! In the end, we even saw a mother and calf swimming leisurely about 50 meters from the boat, and I was grateful for the generous spirit of the whales.
After seeing the whales perfectly, we returned to the harbor and were thrilled to also see a turtle swimming smoothly beside the boat during the 4-hour trip!
By the way, I spoke with someone who booked a tour with meals included after disembarking, and they mentioned that during their meal, there was an announcement saying, "A whale has appeared over there," so they kept going back and forth and hardly got to eat, nor did they see the whales. Announcements are made after a whale has already appeared. I think it’s unlikely you’ll see them if you run over after hearing the announcement... it seems like you have a higher chance of spotting them by focusing your eyes on the spouts yourself. Also, I wouldn’t really recommend it for children. Since you can’t approach the whales (but it’s okay if they come close), the whales are far away, and I wonder if they understand when you say, "Over there!"... Many kids seemed to get bored and fussy.
It might be good to participate with the mindset of "If we see them, great; if not, we’ll cruise around Waikiki and Diamond Head." That said, it was fantastic as a cruise! Whether you see whales or not might be a matter of luck, but it was a fun experience worth more than the price♪ I highly recommend it for those going to Hawaii during whale season!
ホノルル近郊だし見れたらラッキーくらいで、見れなかったらクルージングとして楽しもうと予約。
船の停泊している港にはカラフルな魚がいるので乗船前にぜひ見てください!黄色や青の大小さまざまな魚でちょっとテンション上がります
食事無しの人達は3階へ誘導され出港前にクジラや船の説明をされますが、すべて英語だし特に聞いても聞かなくても…という内容。後ほど日本語で書かれた説明ファイルがステージに置かれるので、それで十分。時間があるので、持ってきたおむすびやパンで朝食をしている方が結構いました。朝も早いのでここで食事で十分かも
出港してしまえば自由行動なのでさっそく展望フロアの4階へ。出港して30分、アラモアナが見えてきた頃船と並走するようにイルカが!!!
20頭ほどのイルカにみんなで大興奮!!船と並走したりちょっと離れて飛んだりまた近づいてきたり・・・これだけで値段以上のいいものが見れた気がしてすでに大満足w
45分ほどするとダイアモンドヘッド沖まで来て停泊。ここでクジラを探すとアナウンスが。
が、アナウンス中にすでに潮吹きが見れ、目を凝らしてると大きな尻尾!
ちょっと遠くでしたがバッチリ見れました!
そこからは1時間半ほど動いたり停まったりしながらクジラを探してましたが、15回以上は見れて感動!最後には船から50m先くらいにのんびりと親子で泳ぐクジラまで見れ、サービス精神旺盛なクジラに感謝です
ばっちりクジラを見て港へ帰還中、船の横をすぃーっと泳ぐカメまで見れて感動の4時間でした!!
ちなみに下船後食事つきのツアーで申し込んだ方と話したのですが、食事してる時に「あっちにクジラが出た」とアナウンスがかかるため、見に行ったり戻ったりで食事もほぼ出来なかったし、クジラも見れなかったと。
クジラが出る度にアナウンスはかかるのですが、クジラが「出た」あとにかかります。アナウンスを聞いてからそっちへ走ってもほぼ見れないと思います…自分で目を凝らして潮吹きを探した方が確立高いような気がします。
あと、お子様にもあんまりおススメできないかも。クジラに近寄ってはいけない為(クジラが近寄ってくるのはOK)、クジラは遠くだし、「あそこあそこ!」と言ってもわかってるかなぁ・・・って感じです。結構飽きちゃってグズッてるお子様多数でした
「見れたらラッキー、見れなかったらワイキキやダイアモンドヘッドを巡るクルージング」として参加してみたらいいかな。
とは言え、クルージングとしても最高!見れるか見れないかは運かもしれないけど、お値段以上の楽しい体験でした♪
クジラのいる時期にハワイへ行く方にはかなり!おススメです!
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the experience.
As you mentioned, there are days when the whales are very active and other days when they are more relaxed, so we believe that keeping an eye out for them will give you the best chance to see them at the right moment.
Regarding meals, please note that outside food and drinks are not permitted on board. Recently, the Aloha Tower Marketplace, where the ship departs, has been renovated, and there is now a small supermarket where you can purchase snacks and bento. Additionally, there are open-air tables within the Aloha Tower Marketplace, so if you have booked a cruise without a meal, you might enjoy a light breakfast there before your cruise.
On sunny days, especially in the morning, the cruise is particularly pleasant, so we hope you will visit us again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back!

The beauty of the orange sunset sinking into the white sea of clouds left me with a thrilling emotion, as the hazy view cleared up refreshingly in the thin air. Despite the strong light of the waning moon, I was captivated by the amusing and lively chatter of the guide, who shared stories about the faintly visible Milky Way and various constellations. I forgot the cold, and my childlike spirit was revived. It was a wonderful trip.
白い雲海に沈む夕陽のオレンジの美しさは、薄い空気でぼうっとしていた視界が一気に晴れた爽やかさと共に、心が震える感動を残してくれました。
下弦の月の強い光にも負けず、うっすらと見えた天の川や数々の星座にまつわる物語を語るガイドの方の可笑しく軽快なおしゃべりに聞き入ると、寒さも忘れて、童心が蘇って来ました。
良い旅になりました。
Thank you very much for participating in our tour.
The sunset viewed from the summit and the afterglow after the sun sets are truly beautiful, aren't they? It's an amazing sight to think that we climbed above the clouds.
Please come to the Big Island again next time.
All of our staff are sincerely looking forward to your visit.

I participated in both the sunrise and sunset tours. I thought I might be a bit greedy, but it turned out to be the right decision. We were blessed with good weather and enjoyed the wonderful scenery. While it's common for the sun to rise and set, I was surprisingly moved to the point of almost tears, realizing how extraordinary something so ordinary can be.
I remembered a line from a picture book I read as a child: "The sun is always watching over you." It felt as if the sun was truly saying that to me. When the sun rises, it feels like it's saying, "Alright, go on your new adventure today," filling me with excitement and energy for the day ahead. When it sets, it feels like it's saying, "That's enough for today. This is good," allowing me to acknowledge both the good and the bad of the day with a gentle heart.
I've encountered views that made me feel small before, but this was the first time I felt that while also gaining the strength to strive harder. I felt empowered to do my best.
The reason I felt this way wasn't just because the scenery was amazing, but also because our guide, who truly loves the Big Island, treated us so well. Thanks to the guide's charm, my memories of Mauna Kea became truly wonderful. I hope that many more people will come to appreciate the beauty of the Big Island. Thank you very much.
サンライズとサンセット両方のツアーに参加しました。少し欲張りすぎかなと思いましたが、欲張って正解でした。お天気にも恵まれ素晴らしい景色を堪能しました。太陽が登り沈むことは当たりのことだけれど、当たり前のことがこんなに素晴らしいものかと、不思議と涙が出そうなほど感動しました。
「おてんとうさまはどんな時もあなたを見ているのよ。」子供の時に読んだ絵本の台詞を思い出し、本当におてんとうさまにそんな風に言われた気がしました。
太陽が登る時は、「さあ今日も新しい冒険に行ってらっしゃい」と言われているようで、これから始まる1日にわくわくするような活力が湧いてきて、
沈む時は、「今日はここまで。これでよし。」と言われているようで、その日1日の良かったところも悪かったところも認めてあげることができるような優しい気持ちになりました。
自分がちっぽけに思える景色は他にも出会ったことがありますが、自分を小さく感じるのと同時に、もっと頑張れる。頑張るんだ。と思える力が湧いてきたのは初めてです。
こんな風に感じられたのは、ただ景色が素晴らしかったからではなく、ハワイ島が大好きというガイドさんが本当に良くして下さったということもあると思います。ガイドさんの魅力も手伝って、マウナケアの思い出がとても素晴らしいものになりました。
これからもたくさんの人にハワイ島の魅力が伝わることを願っています。
本当にありがとうございました。

We were blessed with great weather and hardly any wind, making it a wonderful day. The journey to the Onizuka Visitor Center was enjoyable, as we stopped by lava plateaus and learned about various plants and creatures. I gained a lot of valuable knowledge that I wouldn't have known just by driving a rental car myself. The bento and miso soup were even more delicious than I expected. Although it was cold during the stargazing, I was very grateful for the warm tea and cookies provided by the staff. We were able to see shooting stars multiple times, which was truly moving. Honestly, I thought the price was high, but I'm really glad I participated.

オニヅカビジターセンターまでの道のりも、溶岩台地に立ち寄ったり植物や生き物の

The drive from the hotel to the Onizuka Visitor Center took about an hour, and it was very enjoyable to hear stories about the plants and animals that inhabit the Big Island of Hawaii. I felt the staff's attentiveness throughout the journey.
Along the way, we stopped to take pictures of the lava fields, making the trip to our destination quite fun. The lunch box and miso soup we had upon arriving at the Onizuka Visitor Center were delicious.
Regarding the restrooms, I think it's good to follow the instructions about their locations and timing (the staff provides appropriate advice).
At the summit, we were fortunate to have clear weather with no wind, resulting in a wonderful sunset. I was actually worried about my child (13 years old) who wasn't feeling well, but the guide's care and the oxygen bottle they brought along were very helpful. I really appreciated their support. It was my first experience using oxygen!
Even though it was cold during the sunset and stargazing, we were warm thanks to the provided clothing (it seemed that some participants from other tours did not have pants available for borrowing), which made it comfortable.
During the stargazing, the guide's explanations were thorough, easy to understand, and enjoyable. I was also delighted by the warm tea and cookies! We saw shooting stars multiple times during the star explanations, making it an emotional and memorable tour. I'm really glad I participated.
ホテルのピックアップからオニズカビジターセンターまで1時間くらいのドライブ中も、ハワイ島に生息する植物や動物のお話もとても楽しく、スタッフの方のお気づかいを感じました。
途中、溶岩台地も車から降りて撮影したり、到着までも十分楽しく過ごせました。
オニズカビジターセンター到着後にいただいたお弁当とおみそ汁も美味しかったです。
トイレについては、場所やタイミングも説明どおりに行っておくといいと思います。(適切にアドバイスしてくださいます)
山頂でも風もなくお天気に恵まれ、すばらしいサンセットでした。実は同行した子供(13歳)が体調がすぐれず心配でしたが、ガイドさんのケアや持参されていた酸素ボトルも使わせていただいたりしました。大変お世話になりました。酸素吸引も初体験でした!!
寒い中でのサンセット&星空観測でしたが、用意されてあったウエアのおかげで温かく(他のツアーの方はズボンの貸し出しがない方もいたようです)快適に過ごせました。
星空観測では、ガイドさんのお話も丁寧で分かりやすく楽しかったです。温かい紅茶やクッキーも嬉しかった! 星の説明の途中も何度も流れ星が見られて、感動がいっぱいのツアーでした。参加して本当によかったです。
Dear Kokubon,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. The sunset at Mauna Kea is truly magnificent, isn't it? It's rare to be able to drive up to 4,205 meters, and the various telescopes from different countries are definitely worth seeing.

I participated in a tour led by Mr. Matsuzaki on January 16, 2016. To put it simply, it was "the best." I don't think I've ever experienced a tour that was this enjoyable. The guide's humorous explanations and guidance made it a memorable experience, and I would love to participate again. This time it was a crescent moon, which was a bit bright, but next time I would like to join during the new moon, guided by Mr. Matsuzaki.
2016年1月16日にMatsuzakiさんによるツアーに参加しました。結論から言いますと”最高”でした。今回ほど楽しく過ごすことが出来たツアーは経験がないのではないでしょうか。ガイドさんのユーモアを交えた説明や案内、何度でも参加したいと思います。今回は三日月で少し明るかったですが、次回は新月の時に参加したいと思います、Matsuzakiさんのガイドで。

I have traveled to Maui several times and really like it. This time, I participated in the highly-rated tour by Yamapi, which I had been curious about for a long time, and I can't help but wonder why I didn't join sooner! It was a wonderful tour. The sunset and starry sky were beautiful, of course, but what stood out the most was Yamapi's thoughtfulness. He provided various forms of entertainment and truly prioritized the participants. Since I attended with my elderly mother, having blankets and chairs while watching the stars was a great help. I only have memories of being cold during a star tour I took on the Big Island in the past, where there were no blankets, chairs, or warm drinks, but this time was completely different and turned into a fun memory! I also appreciated that we had frequent bathroom breaks. I'm glad my mother enjoyed it too! If I have the opportunity, I would like to join Yamapi's other tours as well. Thank you very much!
マウイ島は気に入って何度か旅行しています。
以前からずっと気になっていた評判の良いヤマピーさんのツアーに今回参加して、何故もっと早く参加しなかったんだろう!と思えるぐらい素晴らしいツアーでした。サンセット・星空が綺麗なのはもちろん、ヤマピーさんの心遣いがとにかく素晴らしかった。色々と楽しませてくれ、ツアー参加者の事を第一に考えてる内容だと思いました。高齢の母と参加したので星空を見る際に毛布とイスがあったのは助かりました。昔にハワイ島で星空のツアーに参加した時は毛布・イス・温かい飲み物はなく寒かった記憶しかなかったのですが今回は全然違い楽しい思い出となりました!お手洗いをこまめに取ってくれた事も有難かったです。母も楽しんでくれたようで良かったです!また機会があればヤマピーさんの他のツアーも参加してみたいです☆ありがとうございました!
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. At 3,000 meters, the air pressure is low, and I believe that sitting in a chair to watch the stars is the best way to observe the celestial bodies. I was also moved by the very filial-minded Miiko. Please give my regards to your mother as well.
ツアーご参加本当に有難うございます。3000メートルは気圧が低く、やはり椅子に座って星を見るのがベストな天体観測だと思います。とても親孝行のみぃこさんに自分も心を動かされました。お母様にも宜しくお伝えください。

I have quite a bit of experience traveling to Hawaii, but this was my first time at Kualoa Ranch. I've always wanted to go, and I finally made it happen this time. I'm so glad I went! I wonder why I didn't come sooner? At the private beach, I relaxed in a hammock, and on the cruise, I even got to see turtles. The location tour was fun, and it was a valuable experience to see the U.S. military bunkers. It was a packed and enjoyable day from early morning until nearly evening.

I was quite moved when the whale suddenly appeared on the surface, even though it didn't show itself for a while!
The guide spoke in English, so I couldn't catch everything, but just being rocked by the large boat and looking at the vast ocean was very soothing.
We participated as a family with children, and it was great that the kids' tickets were free.

We participated in a company trip with a group of six. The guide was a nice guy who spoke fluent Japanese and had an entertaining way of talking. During the journey to Mauna Kea, he frequently scheduled breaks and time for commemorative photos. He took pictures of each group with a good camera and provided a service where the photos would later be available for download on a blog.
The bento we had during the break was unexpectedly Japanese food. It wasn't extremely delicious, but eating together at a picnic table in the great nature of Hawaii made it taste much better.
As we climbed to the summit, the air became thinner and the temperature dropped, making me worry about altitude sickness, but I was fine. I heard that if you fall asleep in the car after reaching a high altitude, the risk of altitude sickness increases... It was tough to fight off the drowsiness.
The sea of clouds and sunset from the summit were very beautiful! To be able to drive up a mountain higher than Mount Fuji and see such a wonderful view was a great memory. The starry sky on the day we participated had strong moonlight, making it a bit difficult to see the stars. Still, with the guide's rich knowledge of constellations, we enjoyed it thoroughly.
While some people might go by rental car, the roads near the summit are quite rough. I think it was a good decision to leave it to the experienced guide for a safe and enjoyable tour. Thank you, Sue!
社員旅行6名グループで参加させていただきました。
ガイドさんは日本語ぺらぺらでトークもおもしろいナイスガイ。
マウナケアまでの道中も度々休憩と記念撮影用に時間を設けてくれます。ガイドさんは良いカメラでグループ毎に写真を撮ってくれるし、後にダウンロード可能な状態でブログに掲載してくれるというサービス付きです。
休憩時にいただいたお弁当は何故か日本食でした。すごく美味しい!というものではありませんでしたが(笑)、ハワイの大自然の中ピクニックテーブルでみんなで食べているというマジックでとても美味しく感じました。
山頂に登るに連れ、空気が薄くなり気温も下がり、高山病にならないか心配でしたが、大丈夫でした。標高が高くなって以降に車内で寝てしまうと高山病のリスクが高まるらしいです…その眠気と闘うことが大変でした。
山頂から見る雲海、夕陽はとても綺麗です!
富士山より高い山に車でラクラクと登り、素晴らしい景色を観ることができるなんて!とても良い思い出になりました。
星空は我々が参加した日は月明かりの強い日で、少し星が見えづらい様子。それでも、星座の知識豊富なガイドさんの説明もあり、十分楽しめました。
レンタカーで自力で行く人もいるようですが、山頂付近はかなりの悪路です。経験豊富なガイドさんにお任せして、安全に楽しく観光できよかったと思います。

I had a very enjoyable experience. As expected, the summit was extremely cold since it was January! It's a good idea to bring your own gloves and hat. The guide, Rick, was very fun and informative.
The moon was too bright, so I gave it four stars, but without that, it would have been five! It might be a good idea to check the moon chart before making a reservation!
とても楽しく参加できました。やはり頂上は1月だったこともあり、激寒です!自分でも手袋や帽子を持って行った方がいいですね。ガイドはRick,とても楽しくガイドしてくれました。
月が明るすぎたので、星4つとしましたが、それがなければ、5つですね!予約の前に月のチャートを確認して予約するといいかもしれません!
I definitely agree, and I think it would be best to look at the lunar calendar when deciding on your travel dates. If the sunset and moonrise times are offset (by at least two hours), a full moon won't be a problem. A new moon provides the best conditions for stargazing.
確かにその通りで、月齢表をご覧になって旅行の日程を決められたらベストだと思います。サンセットの時間とムーンライズの時間がずれていれば(最低2時間)満月でも問題ありません。新月が、星空観測に関しては1番の好条件です。

Thank you for an unforgettable day.
I was a bit anxious about the meeting point since I was staying at the Care Hawaii condo, but I was picked up right at the entrance of the condo.
I honestly didn't have high expectations for the bento, but I was surprised by how much it exceeded my expectations.
At the visitor center, various tour companies were eating their bentos, but ours was the best!!!
The highlight was that there were no disposable containers used at all.
Other companies used disposable plastic containers and paper cups, but here, we had beautiful bento boxes, bowls, and cups.
Even though it was a bit challenging to take them home, it was great to have such a wonderful approach for a tour that allows us to enjoy our beautiful planet.
The sunset and starry sky from the summit of Mauna Kea were breathtaking and will be unforgettable for a lifetime.
We were lucky to have great weather that day, and we could clearly see the summit of Haleakalā on Maui and the red crater of Kīlauea.
Lying down to watch the starry sky felt like being in space, and it truly seemed like the stars were falling.
The photos available for free download were well set up to capture not only the stars but also Kīlauea, which was great, but it was a bit disappointing that the company's name was included at the bottom of the photos...
If there had been no name on the photos, I would have considered it a perfect tour!
The guide, Mr. Konno, provided excellent guidance and photo techniques, which enhanced the experience.
He had clearly studied a lot about the island and constellations, and thanks to Mr. Konno's guidance, it was a fun tour.
I am grateful that I could drive to a high mountain without walking and feel the beauty of our planet.
